capture the topics presented and discussed during class hours.
Use of Class Time: Class time will be used mainly for lectures and discussions. A small part of class hours is used for testing. House works will
be discussed on individual basis.
Class Attendance: Due to the broad range of topics discussed throughout the course and their inter-relationship, it is requested that the students
should attend the class regularly.
Incomplete Grade: A grade of “I” (Incomplete) will be administered only under extreme, verifiable “emergency” situation where the student is
unable to complete some portion of the course work due to circumstances beyond his/her control PROVIDED THE STUDENT IS PASSING THE COURSE.
